seat bags

I use the specialized mini-wedgie and have never had any problems. I don't carry too much, a cell-phone, tube, 1 tire lever, small co2 tap and 1 cannister and minitool, so a small bag works just fine. Its packed tight but it fits. Ive had some others (topeak, banjo brothers) on which the zippers were [censored] and the bag had to be thrown away. I would assume larger specialized bags work just as well if you need the space.

My minitool is the pedros allen wrench set for about 10$

I use the very smallest bag I can get (usually my bike shop gives it to me for free). The little black one with a velcro strap... one tube, 3 tire levers and one multi-tool. Hardly even know it is there. Anything else I need (not much) goes in my jersey pockets.

Wonderful.

I have found the exact version my bike shop hands out - of course it has my LBS's name on it and not 'continental' but this is the exact pack I use.

I have a small Avenir bag that is expandable to a medium bag by unzipping a zipper. I use it as the small bag. It is large enough to hold a tube, tube patch kit, 2 tire levers, one CO2 inflator, small multitool, cell phone, wallet, and keys. I also keep a couple dollars of change in it too.

If you want something a little [censored] and more versitile try Cannondale's Javapod. It goes on/off my bike more easily and faster than anthing else I've tried, rolls up to be really small and expands to carry more than the minimum number of items for fixing a flat.

See it here.

Specialized microtool.
Park MT-1.

I have both of these. They are solid, quality little things.

Oh-oh. Just noticed the very politically incorrect typo in this post. The bag is actually a little BIGGER and more versitile . . . Really sorry about that.

I was wondering what you were trying to say there. At first glance I thought that you were a non-native English speaker and meant that the bag was black. Then it dawned on me that the 'n' key is next to the 'b' key.
